"Then there was nothing left, so some of us sneaked down the mountain. But until that day we found everyone's bodies at the entrance of the village. Everyone was frightened. No one dared to go down the mountain anymore. But there was no food, so everyone began to starve.
, then I was really hungry and couldn’t stand it anymore, so, just.”
Ah Yun couldn't continue talking at this point. She seemed to have recalled something terrible. She covered her head and squatted on the ground, trying to avoid these memories in pain.
Tian Qing looked at Ye Long and asked in a low voice with confusion:
"Ye Long, what's wrong with her?"
Ye Long sighed. He had read history before. There were many things like this in history. The final result of famine was to exchange children for food.
"ah?"
Tianqing was a little unbelievable when she heard these four words from Ye Long, "Could it be that these people ended up eating each other's own children?"
"I can't help but see that after the children have finished eating, they will probably eat each other's parents. After eating, the parents will eat the disabled and sick, and finally the young and strong people will kill each other."
Ye Long pulled Tian Qing aside and explained, while Tian Qing was obviously shocked by this kind of thing. He looked back at A Yun who was squatting on the ground and asked:
"What now?"
"Now we need to find out who those Taoist priests are and why they turned the village into this state. In addition, we also need to find out why Ayun was able to survive five years ago."
Ye Long and Tian Qing signaled to each other, then turned around and helped Ah Yun up from squatting on the ground. Ah Yun seemed to have not finished speaking yet and continued:
"Later on, I had to hide in a cave in the village and eat the fungus rats inside every day. I originally thought that my life would be taken away from me, but the nightmare is still not over."
"What happened again?"
"That time I didn't see the sun for a month and wanted to come out for some air. Then I found that everyone in the village was dead. I didn't have the strength to bury them, so I ignored them. But that night, I saw with my own eyes
They came back to life again, and everyone acted as if nothing happened. I was so scared that I hid, and then I saw that they seemed to have turned into emotionless zombies, carrying pickaxes and looking around for something every day."
No wonder those villagers looked bloodless. They turned out to be dead people. Ye Long suddenly realized it. However, Ye Long still didn't understand why the villagers were resurrected.
"Then how did you get caught by them?"
"One time I was really hungry and couldn't bear it anymore, so I wanted to find some food. I didn't want them to see my hiding place. I had no choice but to go back and had to deal with them, but I was caught by them not long after.
In addition to being abused by them every day, I also have to provide them with physical entertainment."
Speaking of this, Ah Yun finally couldn't hold back her grief and burst into tears. Ah Yun didn't care about the difference between men and women and just lay on Ye Long's chest and cried.
Ye Long had no choice at this time. It seemed that he could not continue to ask questions, so he gave Tian Qing a wink. Tian Qing understood immediately and took out some food and water from the trunk of the car.
As soon as Ayun saw the food, her sadness was immediately defeated by hunger. She rushed towards Tianqing as if she had never seen food before, took the food from his hand, and ate it hungrily.
Tian Qing looked at A Yun's look, feeling a little heartbroken and asked Ye Long:
"Are we still taking her with us next?"
"We can't go to the demon world yet."
Ye Long looked firmly at Ayun not far away and said.
"Why? We have crossed over into the wilderness and entered the territory of the demon world."
Tian Qing didn't understand. It was Ye Long who was hurriedly coming to the Demon Realm, but why he couldn't go now.
"Because the things here have not been resolved yet, don't forget that Mikrant Kotli also asked us to put the Blood Cross in Hunhuangluo to suppress the energy of Hunhuangluo, otherwise we will die! What's more,
I have some ideas now."
Ye Long smiled and looked at the wood carving and blood cross in his hand, looking thoughtful, while Tian Qing looked at Ye Long suspiciously, and then said:
"If you want to go back to that village, go alone, but don't drag me along."
"Nonsense, if you don't come with me, where can you go? If you hadn't been caught by Micrant Cotley and lied to me with him, could I have done this hard work for him?"
Ye Long wanted to be angry, Tian Qing was also afraid that Ye Long would be angry, so she hurriedly apologized and said with a smile:
"No, no, I'll go with you. But what are we going to do this time?"
"Of course it's wood carving."
Ye Long shook the wooden sculpture in his hand in front of Tian Qing's eyes. Tian Qing looked at the wooden sculpture that was penetrated by the blood cross and asked:
"Isn't it a blood-letting cross? What does it have to do with this wood carving?"
"Just after I came down the mountain, I found that my cultivation level had recovered again. It must be because I left Hunhuangluo. I used my true energy to carefully examine the wood carving and found that this wood carving was actually a Dharma Exorcist. To be precise,
It’s a key.”
"What key?"
"The key to unlocking the mysterious power of Hunhuangluo."
Tian Qing was obviously confused and continued to ask:
"Then what does he have to do with the Blood Cross?"
"Why are you so stupid? Micrant Kotli gave us the Blood Cross just for this mysterious power. Only by finding that power can the Blood Cross work."
Tian Qing suddenly realized it, but when she thought about going back to Hunhuangluo again, Tian Qing was a little scared. After all, that place could seal her own cultivation, and once she got there, she would be just a young child.
"Then, what should we do with those villagers?"
"Of course you have to be prepared when you go up this time. Can the car be repaired?"
"I think there should be no problem. It's just that we don't have enough gasoline. We probably can only go up there once."
"That's enough. Let's put the remaining fuel into a bottle and use it as explosives, just in case. This time we just need to sneak into the house."
It had been a long time since Ye Long had done something without relying on his own cultivation. Thinking about it, he was really excited. However, Tian Qing couldn't feel Ye Long's excitement and could only repair the car obediently.
However, looking at Ah Yun not far away, Ye Long felt troubled. Should he take her with him this time? Ah Yun was definitely not willing to go up the mountain again, but he couldn't leave her alone here.
"Tianqing, why don't you stay here and wait for news about me, and I'll go back to Hunhuangluo alone."
In fact, Ye Long wanted Tianqing to stay and take care of Ayun, but when Tianqing heard this, he was so happy that he forgot about everything, and Ye Long immediately regretted saying this.
